England and Russia.

ST. PETERSBURG, June 3. = The

pose that England chcrishes the intention
to profit by the present disorders in
Afghanistan. and become the mistress OF
the country. In that case Russia would
demand serious guarantee that England
proximity would not eubarrass Russia 4
interests in Central Asia, and if England
should refuse to give a guarantee Russia
would take measures regarding the
Afghan frontier provinces which she
deemed expedient and would not be con
cerned whether they were agreeable to
England or not.
The Nouosti says England is much mis-
taken in neglecting to con iliate Russia

Incident in a roet,. Lie.

An English lady who knew the late
Philip Bourke Mnrston, tho poet, well
writes Of his personal history as follows:
''Philip's history was tragic enough.
Blind from his youth, no was engaged

tiful girl with whom he was madly in
love. The time of their marriage was
near. She was abroad with him and her
parents. / do not know il she had been

end came all in q moment. He was seek
ing her, end called. There was no answer
he grouped round the room looking for
her; he found her on the sofa, md put
his hands down to her face; there was no
answering laugh. She was dead. This
is tho story as it Ii always told. l believe
it is the literal one When time had
softcned this sorrow his sister was his
great companions; she also died. Thus
he lost the two best loved Of his life. 1t
seemed as if those he cared for most wero
doomed to die. His betrothed, his sister,
his friend Rosetti (who does not remem.
Der the beautiful sonnet Rosetd wrote to
him?), his brother-in-law, o'Shaughnessy,
young Maddox Brown, whose letters at
test how much Philip Marston was to
him, nn went. Now Philip, too, has
gone. New Orleans Times Democrat.

How an Earthquake sounds.

A frightul grinding noise, harsh,

giant removals van carrying Clcopatra's
Needle or Memnon's Head; a sound as Of

gine that was even made, multiplied by
forty; q sensation of being shaken vio-
lently in ones bed, in q house that shook
and ratified and vibrated with an ever in
creasing violence, which seemed to pre-
sage the immediate fall and ruin of the
building-that vas what the peaceful
jewellers in Cannes experienced betwixt

Telegraph rrom tho West indies.

Nature expresses the belief that any
money which might be spent in fedora
ting the West Indies meteorologically by
means OF the telegraph, even II new cables
had to be laid here and there, would be
saved over and over again in twenty
years by the protection afforded to ship
ping by forecasts during the hurrica q
season, and observes that ''the meteoro-
logical council would gain q larger and
closer view Of tho phenomena which it is
its duty to study, and the federal colonies
would obviously gain by the reduction In

Advocating

LONDON, June 3.-Lord Randolph
Churchill was enthusiastically received by
Northampton clubs to night. Re-
spending to an address, he said the true
remedy for trade depression was economy
in public expenditures. Workers must
not allow Ireland to absorb all their at
tention, but must bring pressure upon the
government to prevent such extravagances
as spending fI zoo, 900 on he army and
admiralty building, and Ell, 900 for dec
Grating Westminster Abbey in honor of
